The positions are six months long internships located in San Diego, CA. The positions offer a unique opportunity to gain valuable ‘real world’ experience and business-related skills as well as developing a professional network in a region with some of the world’s most prominent telecommunications, Life Science, and Cleantech industry clusters. The interns work closely with the Board of Directors, but are the executors of the Chamber’s initiatives, projects, events, and operational activities. In short it comes down to ensuring the overall success and effectiveness of SACC San Diego.

The Marketing & Cleantech intern's main focus is to conduct marketing and communication for the chamber and the chamber's events. In addition, every year in November SACC San Diego hosts a cleantech conference called Green Connections to connect companies, inventors and entrepreneurs with each other. The intern will therefore have a focus on the cleantech industry and will have overall responsibility to start planning this event. Additionally, this person will maintain close contact with the Chamber's current strategic partners and corporate members. The intern will analyze the cleantech market, target new business members, initiate contact and develop a solid understanding of their business needs and negotiate competitive terms to attract new members. The overall responsibility is Green Connections, conducting marketing for the chamber and developing strong and sustainable relationships with current as well as prospective members.

PLEASE NOTE: While candidates are welcome to apply for multiple positions at SACC, it's important to highlight that accepting an offered position and subsequently accepting a second position at SACC is not allowed. Doing so will result in disqualification from both positions.
